Lyrics

I used to sing Now every note tastes like smoke You can't hear me But I still choke I wrote a song in shattered breath Each word a whisper dressed in death They said to speak and I'd be free But all that's left won't carry me I try to scream the sound just fades Like paper burned by old charades No one listens no one stays Just ashes dancing in delay Ashes in my voice - I fade Into the noise you never played You tuned me out erased the song But I kept humming all along Ashes in my voice - no air Just static wrapped in hollow care You turned my name into a void And left a silence to avoid I sang to walls to storms to glass To versions of a better past But echoes only bring me down A choir built to let me drown My voice it breaks in phantom tones It shakes the dirt above my bones You'd never know what songs I hid Behind the hurt you never did Ashes in my voice - I fade Into the noise you never played You tuned me out erased the song But I kept humming all along Ashes in my voice - no air Just static wrapped in hollow care You turned my name into a void And left a silence to avoid I wrote your name in every line But fire burned what could've shined Still I sing though you're not near My voice is gone but you still hear Ashes in my voice that cracked beneath your lies Ashes can you hear the sound of how I died One last note Then I go silent
